Recently the Holy Father received in
private audience Of congo the Cardinal
Archbishop OF Baltimore, who later pre-
scented some thirty-fve Americans, resi-
dents aud visitors in Rome. Among the
latter were Mr. Elbridge T. Gerry and
family, of New York, the founder and
President Of the we'll known society Of
the Prevention of cruelty to children,
productive OF so much general good,
which, with rare impartiaIity, confers
the major portion of its benefits upon
those OF the Catholic faith, which class,
from it's very number, more frequently
claims protection. The Holy Father
took special notice of the two little sons
of MIR. Gerry, asking their names, say
ing some playful words to each, and
patting their cheeks to their great de-
light.
Rev Father Carroll, pastor OF ST..
Vincent de Paul's Church, New York, i'm
pressed his hearers recentlyupon the vital
necessity there was OF giving children Il
practical Catholic education. It will
net dc to merely educate children for
their life. They must be educated for
heaven as well. We are composed of q
body and soul. By pure and secular
education alone the former may be to
some extend provided for; but to pro-
vide for the latter religious education
must be given to our youth. If religion
and learning do not go hand in hand the
child's education is certainly incomplete,
and in fact cannot at all be called edit
cation in the full strict sense OF that
term. Father Carroll was listened to
with marked attention during his Gus
course.
